ETH researchers have developed a new generation of microelectrode- array chips for measuring nerve impulses, enabling studies of how thousands of nerve cells interact with each other. For over 15 ...

For over 15 years, ETH Professor Andreas Hierlemann and his group have been developing microelectrode-array chips that can be used to precisely excite nerve cells in cell cultures and to measure ...

SALT LAKE CITY – Researchers from the University of Utah have gained new insight into the regulation of adult nerve cell generation in the hypothalamus, the part of the brain that regulates many ...

One of the greatest, relatively underappreciated, discoveries in all of science was the discovery of the nerve impulse in the 1930s by the British Lord Adrian. Adrian did win a Nobel Prize for his ...

Despite enormous progress in the past two decades, the intentional control of bionic prostheses remains a challenge and the ...

Two types of discrete depolarizing potentials are recorded intracellularly from thoroughly dark-adapted visual cells of small Limuli stimulated with dim light. The larger type of discrete potential ...

Treatment of neuropathic pain can be achieved with drugs that block voltage-gated sodium channels. However, at present, there are no subtype-specific blockers that discriminate between the different ...
